Eaton 5SC 500VA 350W Line-Interactive Sine Wave Tower UPS, 4x IEC C13, LCD
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Eaton 5SC 500VA/350W Sine Wave Tower UPS (5SC500i, 9210-2327) - 3 Years Local Warranty
Sine Wave Line-Interactive Protection for Servers and Workstations
The Eaton 5SC 5SC500i is a 500 VA / 350 W line-interactive tower UPS that delivers a clean sine wave output on battery. It is built for a desktop PC and monitor, a router and switch, or a small NAS in Singapore offices, clinics, retail back-rooms and server corners, where short outages, sags and surges would otherwise interrupt work or corrupt data.
AVR and Advanced Battery Management
Automatic Voltage Regulation corrects routine voltage deviations without switching to battery, across an input window of 184–276 V. Eaton's ABM charging technology (or constant voltage charging) helps look after the battery, and the battery is user replaceable when it eventually needs changing.
LCD Display, USB and Serial for Automatic Shutdown
An LCD display shows UPS status at a glance. The HID-compliant USB port and RS232 serial port work with Eaton Intelligent Power Protector for automatic, orderly shutdown of connected systems. 4 IEC C13 outlets suit standard IEC power leads used by servers, PCs, monitors and network equipment.
Supplied Locally with GST Invoice and 3-Year Warranty
SourceIT supplies the Eaton 5SC in Singapore with a full GST invoice and local warranty support. Eaton's Singapore price list gives the 5SC 3 years on the UPS and internal battery.

Compatibility & Software Support
What It Is Suited To
This 500 VA model suits a desktop PC and monitor, a router and switch, or a small NAS. The watt rating (350 W) is the limit: total the continuous watts of everything you plan to connect and leave headroom.
Operating Systems and Software
The USB port is HID compliant, so Windows, macOS and Linux recognise the UPS as a power source without extra drivers. Eaton Intelligent Power Protector adds automatic shutdown and monitoring. There is no network card slot on the 5SC.
Outlets
4 x IEC C13 outlets with an IEC C14 input. Equipment with a BS 1363 (Type G) plug needs an IEC C14 lead or an IEC-input power strip; ask us if you need one quoted.

Frequently Asked Questions — Eaton 5SC500I
Is the output a true sine wave?
Yes. Eaton specifies a sine wave output on battery, which suits computers and servers with active-PFC power supplies.
How long will it run on battery?
Eaton publishes 13 min at half load and 5 min at full load (350 W). Runtime varies with load, battery age and temperature.
Can it shut down my PC or server automatically?
Yes. Connect the USB (HID) or RS232 port and use Eaton Intelligent Power Protector, or the operating system's built-in UPS support over USB.
Does it support SNMP or a network card?
No. The 5SC has no expansion slot. For network management, look at the Eaton 5P, 5PX or 9-series ranges.
Can I replace the battery myself?
Eaton lists the 5SC battery as user replaceable. Contact us for the correct replacement battery.
What warranty do I get?
3 years on the UPS and internal battery per Eaton's Singapore price list, supplied by SourceIT with local support and a GST invoice.
